Weddning Wednesday (Prince Laurent of Belgium & Claire Coombs)
12th April 2003 was the day Prince Laurent of Belgium, second son of King Albert II married a lovely girl from England, Claire Louise Coombs. They have now been married 13 years and share three children, Princess Louise and twin boys, Prince Nicholas and Prince Aymeric. Today we step back in time and take a look at the beautiful wedding day they shared.
Princess Claire and her father Nicolas Coombs. I love Claire's dress, it's one of my favourite royal wedding dresses. The neckline is gorgeous and that veil is just stunning. The bouquet is a bit big, but the droopy parts make it work. You can't see it so well here, but Claire is wearing a completely new tiara, which I simply call the Princess Claire Wedding Tiara. It's nice, but sticks up a bit to much for liking. You don't want it to look like you have alien antennas on your wedding day!
The beautiful couple. A close up of the tiara.
The dress in full.
That's the couple, what about the guests?
Of course the groom's parents King Albert II and Queen Paola of Belgium were present.
Laurent's older brother, Prince Philippe, Duke of Brabant & his wife Crown Princess Mathilde
Laurent's niece, Princess Luisa Archduchess of Austria-Este is the flower girl on the right. Luisa is the daughter of Princess Astrid, Archduchess of Austria-Este, Laurent's older sister.
Prince Laurent's aunt, Queen Fabiola of Belgium
Grand Duke Henri and Grand Duchess Maria Teresa of Luxembourg
Prince Guillaume and Princess Sibilla of Luxembourg
Princess Laurentien of The Netherlands
Crown Princess Victoria and Princess Madeleine of Sweden
And...That's all folks, hope you enjoyed!!!

Fashion Fridays
Every Friday will be Fashion Friday. We will look at the fashion of the Royal families throughout the week. Sometimes there will be heaps, other times it might be a slow week.
This week we saw the Belgian Queen Mathilde and Princesses Astrid and Claire step out for Belgian's national day.
To mass Mathilde wore this white dress. I love the sleeves and the hat. I think it's a little short for church though.
The Queen also attended a fete where she wore this dress. I like the style, very appropriate. Not to crazy about all the squares, I think it's too much going on.
Princess Claire wore this number. It's cute but the two shades of green don't really match.
My personal favourite is Princess Astrid, Archduchess of Austria-Este. She wore her military uniform and looked fantastic. Nothing beats a woman carrying around a sword!
We then saw Queen Letizia of Spain in Milan, Italy. I have to say she looked fantastic. Her dress was perfect for a hot Spanish summer. It was also tasteful and had a bit of elegance about it.
Lastly I can't ignore the children's fashion. Princess Elisabeth, Duchess of Brabant and her little sister Princess Eleonore of Belgium looked so sweet at the Belgian National Day celebrations.
